Keybinds, radio, and chat commands

PC binds for guns, dropping contraband, surrender emotes, and radio, including the T and Y keys that two control lists assign differently.

Keybinds, radio, and chat commands

Rebind anything that fails under Settings. Controller sprint and reload are the usual gaps. A touchscreen laptop on the V3 launch build could be detected as a tablet and hide the mouse; that was a reported bug, not a setting.

Radio keys disagree

Two October 2026 control sheets do not match.

  • One lists T as the radio toggle, U as the team list, P as the member panel, and Y as chat visibility.
  • The fuller bind list marks Y as the radio interface, T as both hotmic and the weapon flashlight, U as the unit list, and P as the panic button when that option is on. P is also described as member management.

G is the laser on both sheets, and only if the attachment is fitted. If T does the wrong job, open Settings and read the live bind. Do not assume flashlight and hotmic can share one key.

Documented Corrections channels, where the radio is available: channel 1 for internal guard traffic and channel 2 for people who have already escaped.

The paid Radio gamepass (80 Robux) is a different object. It plays Roblox audio IDs nearby. Loud assets and tracks longer than 400 seconds are blocked. Default tracks cited include Beethoven symphony material. A previous developer-product purchase of Radio or Sign does not need to be bought again.

Chat commands

  • /e hands or /hands raises your hands and blocks tools. Send it again to lower them.
  • /e surrender puts hands behind the head. /e ease puts them behind the back, the cuff stance. /e lean is a crossed-arms idle.
  • /votekick [username] or /vk [username] starts a kick. Level 100 is the documented requirement. A passed kick is described as a one-hour server ban. Vote-kick abuse is itself a kick-to-ban offense.
  • !help [reason] or !mod [reason] calls a moderator. Cooldown is listed at 2 minutes. False tickets are Misuse of Helpcalls.
  • !timer [seconds] starts a local countdown. !rejoin puts you back in the same server.

Who can drop gear

Inmates and Escapees drop cards, ropes, and guns with Z, Backspace, /drop, or /d. Corrections staff generally cannot drop issued weapons, which stops a friendly handoff into the inmate team. Turkey legs are called out as food you cannot drop once held. Some team-locked tools never leave the hand.

Mobile has no dedicated drop button in older player requests. The chat commands /drop and /d are the documented workaround.

Panic and alarms

P is the panic button if you enabled it. On the V3 launch, officers reported that panic fired an alert with no position, so backup did not know where to run. Director alarms are separate: lockdown, riot, and an evacuation alert, from the tablet or the office. Launch reports also included sirens that would not shut off.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Valley Prison [V3] have working codes?

No developer-issued Valley Prison code has been published for this place, and the October 10, 2026 V3 notes do not mention a redeem box. A June 30, 2026 check of the live game also found no code field. Treat code lists for this game as unverified, and do not enter your Roblox password on a site that promises a code.

What happens after you escape?

Cross the outer perimeter as an inmate. The server then switches you to Escapee. You keep three lives. Resetting after the Escapee tag appears does not spend a life, but dying in combat or being arrested does. Losing all three lives sends you to Maximum Security.

How do you drop a keycard or tool?

Hold the item and press Z or Backspace, or type /drop or /d in chat. Inmates and Escapees can pass contraband this way. Corrections and other law-enforcement loadouts generally cannot drop issued weapons.

Do job points unlock guns?

Account level unlocks teams and gear. Job points are a separate ladder for each staff department and only change your rank title and insignia. Points earned as a Correctional Officer do not transfer to CERT, State Police, or Facility Employee.

What level do you need for State Police?

The V3 badge catalog stops at Level 100 with You really did it. Older role pages still list State Police at 135 and State Police SWAT at 175. Those higher gates were not restated in the October 10, 2026 patch notes, so check the team menu on your account before you grind toward them.
